"Hegira" lyrics

"Hegira"

Whatever life holds in store for me
I will never forget these words
With great power comes great responsibility
This is my gift, my curse

My story is not for the faint of heart
An entire life built in tragedy

And if was all my fault
Some say they don't want to own it
People like me, we don't get a choice
Take what's thrown at you head on. Head on!

My story is not for the faint of heart
An entire life built on tragedy

This means everything
The love, the horror and all in between
This means everything
The love, the horror and all in between

Whatever life holds in store for me
I will never forget these words
With great power comes great responsibility
This is my gift, my curse

Courageous, self sacrificing
I believe there's a hero in all of us
That keeps us honest, that gives us strength
Makes us noble, and allows us to die with pride

Allows us to die with pride

My story is not for the faint of heart
An entire life built on tragedy
My story is not for the faint of heart
An entire life built on tragedy
Built on tragedy
Built on tragedy

I must answer my calling
It's what is expected of me

I must answer my calling
It's what is expected of me

I must answer my calling
It's what is expected of me

I must answer my calling
It's what is expected of me
